LOL ... love it. :-) Using a cheap wide adapter like that gives all the bendy lines and odd blur/CA/etc that I'd occasionally want for a fisheye view, and is cheaper, smaller and lighter than a dedicated FE lens. Might be a thought to add one of them to my kit for use with the DA21 if I feel I want to play with those kinds of effects again. I sold the Zenitar- K 16mm lens as it simply sat in the equipment drawer untouched the vast majority of the time. Cheaper than a Lensbaby in Kmount too, and I get to use all the exposure mode of the K10D... ! Thanks.
